Republican Party Ethics

“LOL. Still may sense, so maybe we can all try to share.

Borp On!”

I'm not "trying to use copyright" or "suppress free speech", only positing the notion that one of those photos could be that of "my" spontaniously aborted fetus.....or "your's".

Would the parents of that fetus not have a say in the display of such a photo?

How about some bozo displaying a photo of "my" dead son or "your's" who was killed in the war for political purposes?”

“There he is! LOL!”

“Thanks, Violin!!!

All those talking heads are proven morons..............or liars.

"Hero President"???
Laugh My Ass Off!!!!”

“All those talking heads are proven morons..............or liars.

And yet they seem to be the only way Violin expresses his own opinions is through cutting and pasting the media's drivel.”

“I think Violin just gets a kick out of showing how far those media people have their noses up Dubya's butt.”

“Bring back the aircrap carrier and banner.”

“I think Vi's cartoon was very contextual. I had a going over with Mutt earlier on this thread. He had a very hard time remembering what was going on back then as far as media support for the presently failing action in Iraq. Seems as though he is not the only one having senior moments about the media role early on.

“Those people certainly were smoochin' some Dubya Butt................but they can't seem to remember now.”

“Yep - I'm glad to see that the lap dog press doing a little barking and yapping. I'd love it if their journalism was higher quality, but it is a relief that they seem to notice that the emperor has no clothes and is butt ugly to boot.”

“MR. Pot.....you have a call from MR.Kettle.....”

“Which one of them is you?”

“The media only feeds on whatever carcass is freshest at the time and they generally serve what everyone seems to be ordering.”

“while also nudging them toward the hot item on the menu.”

“Come on...media being impartial? Shall we start with the Spanish American War? (LOL)

Nah, I take a generally dim view of reporters (Liz baby excepted). Just about every study shows they are liberal biased but I notice that they also tend to try to make themselves the stars rather than report the issues.”

“Not perfect, but without the media where would we be. Depending on Tony Snow's spin?”

“"Shall we start with the Spanish American War? (LOL)"

Maybe Nimblefoot is old enough to remember, but didn't the media(W.R.Hearst&Co.) whip up phony war hysteria to help sell that war too?
LOLOLOL!!!!!!!!”

“My only point is that, while you can't trust the media, you can trust the government even less. All those LOL's are making me dizzy.”

“LOL!”

“Arrgh.”

“All kettles and no pot.”

“If I had the pot I would sh1t a kettle.”

“Marky Mark in answer to your question the comment to the President was something like, "you start the war we will give you a reason"

It was the beginning of the term Yellow Journalisim”

“Egg zackle.........

In this case el presidente started the war and gave the reason.
Well, then they changed the reason when the evidence didn't add up.
And changed it again.........

What we have now is more of a Yellow President instead of Yellow Journalism.”

“LOL...yeah okay...I bet you looked up gullible didn't you...? (LOL)”

“You furnish the pictures and I'll furnish the war.

-William R. Hearst

The comment was not to President McKinley (R)(who opposed war until his support eroded) the comment was made in response to the position that conditions in Cuba were not bad enough to go to war over.

“LOL”

“Conditions for whom, the plantation owners?”

“Wall Street Journal to become a, 'right wing Murdoch rag ?????”

“Well, actually yes and no.
Some plantation owners fought for Spain and some freed their slaves and fought to overthrow slavery and colonial rule by Spain.

The US intervened on the side of anti-slavery and anti-colonial Spanish rule.”

“Knowing what racial attitudes were 100 years ago I doubt that anyone had human rights in mind as a reason for war......maybe an excuse.”

“Sometimes self-interest and human rights do coincide.”

“The really neat thing to look at is the length of time it took from the end of the WAR to subdue the Phillipean Insurrection...which was a guerilla war led by.....(anyone want to guess the religion leading the insurrection?)”

“Phillipean? I thought those were the dudes in the Bible.

Oh, I forgot, LOL.”

“OOOH gonna go spelling king on us (LOL) actually they were Moros.”

“That's right, XL.
The Moros were fighting foreign intervention by......guess who?

And what was all that warring in the Pillipines all about anyway?
(pssst, to protect the foreign commercial interests)
It sure as hell wasn't to protect human rights since U.S. soldiers were told to kill all males over the age of ten.......just to be sure.”

“Umm no.
There were two separate rebellions in the Philippines.

The northern rebellion (AKA the American-Philippine War) was led by Aguinaldo and they were not Muslim.

The southern rebellion was the Moros and they were never part of Aguinaldo's movement. They really weren't the same conflicts.”

“It really doesn't matter. The bottom line is that Subic Bay and Manilla were some damn fine liberty ports in the 60's. THAT's what it's all about!”

“You people have been spending too much money at your undocumented pharmacist.”

“Nimble...Alongapo (don't remember spelling)...fun huh??????”

“according to a report just issued (PDF) by the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, at least 88 White House officials used Republican National Committee email accounts for government business. The RNC has destroyed at least some of the emails from 51 of those officials. Law requires emails sent by officials to be stored or recorded. There is evidence that White House lawyers and the (current) Attorney General knew of this but did not act to stop it.

theres some ethics for ya”

“Poor Vile is so filled with rage over the Democrat Duke DA.”

“"These e-mail accounts were used by White House officials for official purposes, such as communicating with federal agencies about federal appointments and policies... Given the heavy reliance by White House officials on RNC e-mail accounts, the high rank of the White House officials involved, and the large quantity of missing e-mails, the potential violation of the Presidential Records Act may be extensive."

“the duke da was totally and completely in the wrong and is getting what he deserves

however, the duke da does not represent the democratic party.

the RNC IS the republican party.”

“WOW...lots of useless TROLLISH BUZZING...LOL...

THe worst thing you can do to a Libbie is turn the lights on.”

“The 'Silly Libby Twins' seem disturbed.”

“They do tend to run like roaches, don't they when they have a light shown on then like the Duke DA, ha ha.”

“See, one got disturbed and confused again.”

“Bloomberg said bye bye to the republican party just a few minutes ago. 2008”
